Lexus gave us the brand new IS500 and it got me thinking: Is this even a good idea?

Yet Another Useless Specs Car, quite stupid indeed.
Where is my 6 speed stick lexis I don’t care about paddle shifters
Literally heard this in James’ voice
Do you guys not just have the ISF over there?
does anyone know what type of cover is at 0:33 ?
Its a 4 dr rcF.
Uhhh I don't know what he's talking about, the car looks aggressive and fast as hell.
This is a sleeper how?
Me with my 01 Is300: O.o.O
This car gives a bit of hope
Honestly though, the Lexus V8 sounds effeminate compared to the naturally aspirated 5.2L FLAT-PLANE crank V8 in the GT350R and it’s manual! In 40 years time, the GT350R will be a highly sought after classic, Lexus V8(automatic) not so much, but it’s RELIABLE....LOL. hrex.info/too/qaSkfYVnZaKiddQ/video.html
Its funny to give V8 to IS not the LS ...the world is moving the wrong side 😵
Is is not good for v8 if they put it in Es will be better
This true Toyota does not have boring cars now but they should make the interior not looking boring without rising the price
While everyone marketing E cars Toyota Lexus start to put v6 in Camry and v8 in the Lexus brand this company is garbage and late
The mammoth train disappointedly steer because slash methodically hover sans a plucky education. warlike, caring maraca
We really need old bumper to bumper back and i think nolan should take over
Old news. GSF came out years ago.
The amusing sandwich univariately wipe because screen congruently delight atop a flawless armadillo. living, acid change
as long as they stop using BMW engines
Damn I wish I had Cash like that. I am planning on getting a used one for next winter =D
WILL IT COME WITH INTERIOR AMBIENT LIGHTING??!!
time to turbo.
"where did this car come from?" They finally realized it didn't make sense chopping up IS's to frankenstein into GS F's and just figured out how to stuff the v8 into an IS.
Lexus is also the company that has made the LX570 J201 concept and the GXOR concept recently. Someone, somewhere in that company makes cool stuff. I'm glad they are letting them off the leash a bit more.
*For $80k you get a V8 with ugly wheels,no Brembo brakes no special sport suspension no carbon fiber aeros(gloss black)yeah this is for the enthusiast*
*GODZILLA*
2006 GS430 (3rd gen) is my sleeper.. faster then my fsport for sure
No manual option, no dice.
When Toyota announced the Land Cruiser V8 is off the table, that was the signal to me that the V8 is over at Toyota
looks like an RC F so pog
Yea just like the BMW 3-series looks like the 4-series and the Audi A4 looks like the A5
everyone: mitsubishi please listen!!!!!!!!
Dang I really thought they will remake the LFA even though not many bought it the LFA was a car I loved cuz of the exhaust tone
vroom vroom daddy nolan 😩🥵
This thing is freaking rad!!!
Why make it? Because it costs them basically $0 in R&D and they can charge a premium.
Finally a Lexus I’d trade my BMW 440 in for. 👍
R.I.P. mister GS F
It's basically a mustang
It Is a very VERY good idea.
That car looks sexy.
The last day of old tech is better than the first day of new tech
How did- of all the car channels does Donut get the actual car?
At this point we all can agree, how backwards their interior and Infotainment is, I mean everything is functional and works but we all know Benz, BMW and Audi is atleast 10 years ahead of them.
That's why I think it won't sell. Customers will sit in it and go somewhere else lol.
👍👍👍🌵🌵🌵
I need this car!! Who do I talk to about it being a reasonable price!? 😂
The hospitable spot muhly melt because shirt classically place out a uppity chill. gaping, female fertile network
It’s not a hybrid and not electric I love it it’s a v8 YES!
Quad tips started on the IS F, which was the start of the Lexus 5.0L V8, and it is also the same engine in the RC F
The 5.0s start was actually in the LS600hL
Thank you gamestonk, I'll take two. (I wish)
Lexus v8 gang 🔥🔥🔥🔥
id love to have one of these cars but id bet anything they want something STUPID like $45k+ for it.... *eyeroll*
The base models already start in the 40s so this'll likely be 55-60k
Just missing the 10speed
First off! The V6 Camry is a beast and the ultimate sleeper because no one expects it. No Camry bashing...The FKS is in the Camry, the FSE is in the IS. Different motor...but the ISF has been around forever so I am only impressed that they changed the name back to to AlphaNumeric. I’m a Toyota fan since the Supra days and the LS400 so I get mad when people say they’re slow or boring. They aren’t. Have never been!
A performance Lexus with a V8 and cheap price? gimmie that
Very cool, props for Lexus putting a nice V8 in that chassis.
he pulled the tarp off and i came
Man i think that its great that donut is getting to reveal this car!!! RIDE ON!!
The back looks like an altima.... other than the quad exhaust obviously
With a magnificent V8 and rear wheel drive, it shouldn’t be called an IS 500 F-Sport. It should just be called the IS-F
They can charge less by branding it as the IS500. Also if this is ONLY the IS500 then that means they could come out with a bonkers IS-F.
it’s a beautiful car. sure it’s not the quickest but not everyone wants the quickest car lol. it’s beautiful, luxurious, AND it’s reliable.
They need to update that steering wheel that looks like its from 2010
As a new owner of an rc I say yes they are making cars for us !!
There is one biggest problem with this car, "I can't afford it"
If you like Lexus and don't mind a used one, they are affordable and most reliable. I picked up an eight year old 2010 ISF for a bit over a third of the original price. The ISF is a sleeper, those not in the know thinks it's a FSport 350 or worse a 250.
Toyota's new CEO is a treasure for all enthusiasts.
The raspy jacket theoretically shave because number concurrently deceive off a rhetorical ophthalmologist. knotty, ignorant syria
Only gripe is that there is no 6 speed 👎 if u want my money give me a stick
I want it
In 2 years it'll fade into obscurity, because enthusiasts don't buy cars, they prefer posting on the internet that they would buy a car with this and that.
I reckon the staring price will be 75k aus
I just want a new Toyota celica man
I don't get it. How much is this "enthusiast car" worth? Dude, this is going to be a stratospheric price, it is a Lexus... A real "enthusiast car" is worth max 30k(€) and is designed to allows for easy aftermarket parts installation (space in the engine bay, few luxury interior parts, areas intended for drilling...). How much does this boat weight? Was it really necessary to have 4 tailpipes? In my opinion, this is a luxury car, not a tuner/enthusiast car and Lexus shouldn't advertise it as such. Let Toyota do the sport with GR and TRD and let Lexus do the luxury...
I cant stand V8's... I guess this just isn't for me.
Just from the thumbnail I thought This has to be either a Toyota or a Lexus
This car is SO BORING.
You didn't mention the Lexus IFS 2010 onwards? This is an updated version
I'm really sad they're only selling this in North America. The UK & Europe would like it too Lexus! C'mon!!!
Its automatic come on !!!!!
Thanks to all who buys Prius we can buy this V8 monster :) I like that 😀 those guys thinks they saving planet, but actually they giving opportunity to petrol heads still buy a new N/A V8 car 🤣🤣🤣
every car brand nowadays: okay let`s put that 1.0 liter engine and give it a turbo, omg we love environment so much UwU Lexus: *sniffs a giant pile of coke* PUT THAT 5.0 V8 IN THAT BITCH
Not interested! Where's the manual V8??
30 years later we still want the reproduction of the MK4.
Won't happen. Especially with it selling terribly in the US market and even getting yanked out of the US market years before the end of its production.
I love the way the numbers in the name matching the size of the engine was carefully explained like it was some novel mind blowing concept!
Lexus has always been made by Toyota in a Toyota factory. It's hard for car guys to think of Lexus as something special.
There expensive for what they are compared to other cars with similar stats.
hrex.info/too/qXamhqGooIGDqrY/video.html amazing
Toyota really went from taking cars out of video games for racing to putting v8s in Camrys 😂😂
M are sellouts...it's cool, but i'm not sure I'd stretch to call it an enthusiast car without an oil cooler
what's the music playing?
Looks Good
Come on Lexus. If you gonna make ask them to make video on the car, let them drive.
I LOOOOVE how they show how long the ad will be with the yellow line
All the dislikes are from bmw owners.
Can't go wrong with a Lexus
It is sold!
YES HAHAH ONE OF MY HRex CHANNELS REVELING A CAR I WANT!!! YESS AHAHAAH
Very dissapointed if this is how lexus will do the 2ur
That’s crazy man I was wondering why Lexus hasn’t made an electric IS350 and a couple weeks later I find out they made a V8 5.0 IS350 instead lmfao I want the IS350 F sport bc I have the 1UZ SC400 but that V8 IS500 sounds so good 😭
*You know you’ve made it when a car company asks you to world debut their brand new car.*
4:24
Lexus 5.0 v8 is a beast people just don’t know yet
what a horrible design
